Landslides and instabilities

The term landslide indicates both the movement of portions of a slope and the geomorphological element constituting the slope. Geological monitoring is decisive in defining the evolution of the landslide and makes it possible to develop forecasting models in order to identify suitable risk mitigation interventions and to plan the territory in situations that are difficult to combat definitively with stabilisation interventions.

The Inventory of Landslide Phenomena in Italy (IFFI ) provides a detailed picture of the distribution of landslide phenomena on the Italian territory.

Hazard Maps (CaP) take into account hazards associated with hydrogeological phenomena, avalanches, floods, earthquakes, forest fires, certain hazardous substances, overhead cables or other obstacles to air navigation, and unexploded ordnance.
These are a series of tools produced in accordance with Article 10 of Provincial Law No. 9 of 1 July 2011, ‘Regulation of civil protection activities in the Province of Trento’, which identify and classify the hazards present within the territory.
The departments of the Autonomous Province of Trento responsible for hydrogeological hazards and risks contributed to the drafting of the CaP.

In order to deepen our knowledge and to define the evolution of movements over time, many landslide phenomena are currently monitored with the aid of instrumentation dedicated to collecting data useful for studying and monitoring their movements.

Aggiornamento ottobre 2025: la relazione tecnica del Servizio Geologico. Confermato il pericolo di ulteriori crolli sul sentiero Benini

Monitoraggio della frana di Peio. Il versante di Peio è caratterizzato dalla presenza di un potente strato di depositi detritici di origine glaciale, costituiti da limi, sabbie, ciottoli e trovanti di varie dimensioni.

Monitoraggio delle frana di Forte Buso - Passo Rolle

Monitoraggio della frana di Giustino - loc. miniera di feldspato. Comuni di Giustino e di Massimeno.

Il movimento sul versante denominato “Slavinac” che incombe sulla S.P. 71 Fersina-Avisio all’altezza del lago di Lases è noto fin dal novembre 1997. Si era verificato al margine Nord dell’area estrattiva che, a seguito del fenomeno, in quella zona è stata immediatamente chiusa.
